Post Malone at The Opry!

\

Last night, Post Malone made his Grand Ole Opry Debut last night, and it went pretty dang well.

Like, standing ovation well.

Not a bad way to get people ready for his Country album “F-1 Trillion” which comes out tomorrow.

Here’s just a few of last night’s performances:

Dammnnn…

Posty killed it.

If this doesn’t get you ready for his new album, I’m sorry about your life.

Seriously, I hink Post Malone is more talented than many have given him credit for, and clearly, he has all of Nashville’s support, so I’m for it.

And for the naysayers, look, having an artist like Post Malone on the Country scene will only bring more people to discover the Country genre.

That’s not a bad thing.

Lainey Wilson Teases Title Track off Her New Album “Whirlwind”

Just a week and some change away from Lainey Wilson’s new album “Whirlwind”!

And, like most artists do these days, she’s teasing songs off of it on social media, like the title track, which sounds like it’s gonna be a banger:

I love the vibe of this song, and the strains of the 90’s Country sound in it.

Thank you, Baby Jesus, for Lainey Wilson.

“Whirlwind” drops next Friday, and you can get more info at http://LaineyWilson.com

Morgan Wallen Teases New Song!

Happy Friday!

Morgan Wallen- in case you missed it- has gifted us with another teaser… this time for a song called “Good to See You Smile”, and I’m thinking it could be one of his best yet:

Damn. I can’t wait for the full version to drop.

No word on when that’s going to happen, but typically, when an artist teases something, that means something is going to be happening soon.

I really like Morgan’s deeper, slower tunes, as opposed to the catchy hits like last year’s smash “Last Night”.

Seriously, say what you will about Morgan- you can’t deny the guys talent.

He’s also killing it on his stadium tour right now- dates and info at http://Morganwallen.com

Lainey Wilson Feat. Miranda Lambert “Good Horses”

Ahhhh!

I have been waiting for this since Lainey Wilson and Miranda Lambert performed it in Vegas back in December.

Earlier this morning, Lainey and Miranda dropped a new song called “Good Horses”, and it’s everything I had hoped for.

I mean, really, how can you go wrong with these two?


PERFECTIIOn.

“Good Horses” was written by Lainey Wilson and Miranda Lambert alongside songwriter Luke Dick.

Everything about it, I love. The lyrics, which as a horse woman and a woman who has been hapily married for seventeen years to a man who has never tried to fence me in, speak to me on so many levels. And yes, a good horse will always come home. It knows where the hay is. Being a military wife, and someone who always likes to do my own thing and have my own life as well, this song is both me and my husband. We will always make our way back home to each other, no matter what. No need to keep each other in a round pen.

Kudos to Lainey and Miranda, not for just a beautifully written song that is nothing like what is on Country radio just now, but also for the gorgeous vocals.

“Good Horses” will be on Lainey’s upcoming album “Whirlwind” which will be out August 23rd.

Miranda Lambert “Alimony”

Miranda Lambert recently released another new song off of her upcoming album “Postcards From Texas”, and it’s classic Miranda Awesomeness!

Check out “Alimony”:

Now, THAT is some classic Miranda. Fun, Feisty, and with perfect Country vocals.

Oh, and she just released the acoustic version today:


All these tunes Miranda has been dropping has me all kinds of ready for her new album on her new label Republic Records called “Postcards From Texas”, which comes out September 13th.

Oh, and Friday?

She will release her long-awaited duet with Lainey Wilson “Good Horses”.

I. Can’t. Wait.

 

Carrie Underwood Covers the Heck Out of “Don’t Stop Believin'”

Carrie Underwood brought down the house over the weekend in Honolulu! She’s getting a lot of attention for her cover of the massive Journey hit “Don’t Stop Believin'”, which is incredibly hard to pull off, because, well, Steve Perry. He’s easily one of the best vocalists to ever vocal.  Carrie and her golden pipes did one heck of a job, though! Enjoy:

Damnnnnn…

I’ll be completely honest, I don’t love all of Carrie’s music that she puts out- I firmly believe that her ealry releases were her best- but when it comes to pure vocal talent, well, it’s hard to beat those pipes.

The mark of true talent is how they perform live. Carrie effortlessly knocks out those high notes without any trouble at ALL.

I used to sing in an 80’s Cover Band, and had the blind ambition to sing “Don’t Stop Believin'”.

It was maybe OK at best. My talent level is just a tiny portion of what Carrie’s is. Which is why she does what she does, and why I talk about it.

BUT… I can do splits while singing “Pour Some Sugar On Me” and not miss a beat.

Carrie, can you do that?

@meganontheradio #tbt to when I was in a band and I got to sing at bars and act like a middle-aged Coyote Ugly chick. Good times. #rock #defleppard #dance #splits ♬ original sound – Megan Vaughan

I’m such a class act.

Anyhow, for some more REAL talent, how about the OG “Don’t Stop Believing”?

There is a reason that it is the “Most Popular Song in History” according to Forbes:

Post Malone “Yours”

I can’t love this song enough.

Post Malone is gearing up for the release of his upcoming Country album “F-1 Trillion” and did a live show in Nashville earlier this week at Marathon Music Works. He debuted several new songs, including “Yours”, which he wrote about his 2-year-old daughter getting married one day, and how he will feel if that happens.

As a mother, this basically slays my heart:

Oh, my heart!

You will be hearing this at ALL the weddings for the next couple of decades.

Seriously, I am so impressed with Post Malone and how he’s moving into Country music.

I absolutely cannot wait for his album “F-1 Trillion”, which drops August 16th. He will, of course, have a tour to follow, and you can get those dates at http://Postmalone.com

Morgan Wallen “Lies Lies Lies”

Morgan Wallen gave fans something to celebrate this Fourth of July weekend.

He just released a fan favorite called “Lies Lies Lies”, and if you haven’t heard it, it’s kind of a banger, like most of Morgan Wallen’s catalogue.

SUCH a good song, and I totally get why is super fans wanted him to release it.

It was originally a part of Morgan’s “Abbey Road Sessions” in London, and his fans have been begging for an actual studio recorded release, and he delivered.

The song is written by Jessie Jo Dillon, Josh Miller, Daniel Ross and Chris Tompkins, and if it goes to radio, I’m betting it’ll be another #1 for Morgan.

There is NO stopping this guy.

Unless, you know, he has another few scandals… but so did most of the greats in Country music.

Morgan Wallen is currently slaying it on his “One Night at a Time” staium tour, and you can get those dates at http://MorganWallen.com

Lainey Wilson “Hang Tight Honey” Music Video

I didn’t think it was possible, but I love Lainey Wilson even more after this video!

Lainey released the music video for her latest hit “Hang Tight Honey” today, and it’s pretty dang cool.

I love the 60’s vibe that it starts out with, and her band being heaviy featured as well.

Check it out below:


Seriously, how fun is that?

Hang tight honey, Lainey isn’t going anywhere. I kind of feel like she’s just getting started.

Good.

Check out her new album “Whirlwind” which drops August 23rd, and she is all over the place this year on the road- hence the inspiration for the song- and you can get her dates at http://LaineyWilson.com

Lainey Wilson “Out of Oklahoma”

Happy First Day of Summer!

Let’s celebrate with new music from Lainey Wilson, shall we?

Lainey has a new song that she wrote for the upcoming “Twisters” movie soundtrack called “Out of Oklahoma”, and I think it’s one of her best yet:


LOVE IT!

Lainey’s vocals, style, and writing are perfect modern Country, and I am definitely adding this one to my personal playlist.

“Out of Oklahoma” will be featured along with tracks by Luke Combs, Shania Twain, Miranda Lambert, Red Clay Strays and more on the “Twisters” movie soundtrack with comes out the same day as the movie on July 19th.

The soundtrack alone will be worth seeing the movie for!
